Haraldstad Flops Top Pair, Avoids the Flush

Adam Lamers

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Joachim Haraldstad opened to 80,000 from under the gun with K?5? and Samy Boujmala called on the button with A?8?. They went heads-up to a flop of K?10?6? and Haraldstad continued with a bet of 80,000 which Boujmala called.

The turn brought the 4? and Haraldstad slowed down with a check. Boujmala checked behind and the Q? landed on the river. Haraldstad flicked in a small bet of 125,000 on the river and Boujmala laid his hand down after missing his flush draw.
